The inner garden.

Seek not only
a mind that sings
but a heart
that flowers
and germinates.

This is the most simple & precious message I've read in weeks here. I cannot stand the ego-filled buffoons with one goal -- to shine their own glowing stuff out on others, as if that's how to be great. Your poem speaks to the need to nurture & encourage others, becuz solo success does not sustain a people the way plural success does (((HUGS))) Fondly, Margie
